There were five American Indian students enrolled in Crosby County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 400% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Crosby County welcomed 1,052 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, American Indian comprised 0.5% of the student body to be the second least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the eight schools in Crosby County, Ralls Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of American Indian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of four students.

The Texas education system is currently torn between public schools and taxpayer-funded private schools.

Critics argue that private schools use funds that should go to the public school system, while private school advocates claim they’re offering better education for more Texas students.
